Very slow dl

19 October 2018, 13:02

Hi guys, I have spent SEVERAL DAYS trying to dowload ClassicWB_P96V28.zip from the abime.net site..... It is so slow, that I am having NO SUCCESS with my reintroduction of Amiga from well over 20 years ago... that music! I have never forgotten it, and am amazed at the emulator scene for the amiga. Hence my joining this site etc. SILKWORM! I wanna play it ASAP!~
Any help with that download problem would be GREATLY appreciated, as it is driving me nuts! Cheers from Australia , John

Heya JFM1962,

Welcome to EAB

...that's weird, I just downloaded all 4 x versions and it took less than 2 minutes for everything.

Which version are you after? I can put in The Zone! for you

Either that, or try the Google Drive mirror? It's often faster than the FTP server

I don't think he's using the FTP indigolemon; probably downloading directly from here (as I did above): http://classicwb.abime.net/classicweb/download.htm

Better off without this bloatware, just install what you actually need.

If all you're wanting to do is play Silkworm simply download the ADF. You'll need a kickstart 1.3 as well, let's just say that it's freely available on the web.

ClassicWB Lite is great, but I agree that the other packages are overkill...
